A Play in One Act

------------

Come in!
Have a seat!

Thank you

You're welcome

What's your first name?

What's your family name?

Glad to know you
I am your friend

Please repeat

I don't know
I think so
I don't think so
Maybe

I am hungry
I am thirsty

Stop!
Come here!
Right away
Come quickly!
Go quickly!

Help!
Help me!
Bring help!
I'll pay you

Where are the soldiers?
Where are the American soldiers?

How far is the town?
How far is it?
Is it far?
Is it near?

Which way is north?
Which is the road to Moscow?
Draw me a map
Take me there
Take me to a doctor
Take me to the hospital

Danger!
Take cover!
Gas alarm!
Careful!
Wait a minute!
Good luck!
